Strengths	+ Only stable GA model in the Gemini 3.x family as of June 2026; positioned for agentic execution and sub-agent deployment + 1M-token context window with thought preservation across multi-turn agent loops + Rich built-in tool ecosystem (search/maps grounding, code execution, file search, function calling)	+ Open weights + Best-in-class for Chinese-language workloads + Strong on coding benchmarks
Tradeoffs	− Per Google docs: Computer Use is not supported at this moment (it was available in the Gemini 3 Flash Preview) − Output capped at 65k tokens, lower than competing flagships' 128k	− Inference infra is the team's problem
